There are a lot of misconceptions about foundation repair, and today I’d like to discuss some of those misconceptions with you.

Foundation repair is easy! …If you have the proper training, the right people, and the right system in place. You should never put the structural integrity of your home in the hands of an inexperienced contractor. Contact a foundation specialist.

Sometimes brick cracks are purely cosmetic and just need to be re-tuckpointed. Contact a foundation repair specialist to determine whether or not your foundation needs repair, or if the brick cracks are purely cosmetic.

You should not have a problem selling your home in the future if foundation repair work has been done properly by a licensed foundation specialist, with a fully transferrable warranty that has no hidden clauses or fine print.
